I was practicing a scene from a school play
I feel like this might bring out the response that will make me feel not as bad...
Called Charlie just to make sure
Eden McCoy
..........called Charlie. I just needed to make sure that i wasn't breaking my promise to him. I dialed his number.
Charl… morees Sparks
Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, wait.....
My phone was ringing. I answered.
"Hello"
"Hi Charlie" It was Eden. Why was she calling?
"Um hi Eden....what's up?"
"I just wanted to make sure you were cool with it." ...what?
"Cool with what?"
"With waiting. Mr. Pierce already told me you were cool with waiting the 2 hours instead of me making him get it early. But i just wanted to make sure you were and i kept my promise"
........What the fuck? I didn't say that. Pierce must have lied to get her off his back. I shouldn't let him get away with this. Eden dosent deserve to be lied to. But then again Eden would be pissed at him and he wouldn't forgive me for a WHILE. But Eden is one of my 2 best friends I can't just lie to her if she found out she… [view original content]
Charles Sparks
"Yeah yeah were cool. Thanks for calling"
"Oh thats a relief well nice talking to you, bye"
"Bye" I turned off. The… moren i prayed silently that i wouldn't end up regretting that.
Eden MCcoy
Thank god the way he talked i was worried that Mr. Pierce had bs'ed me. I was glad to have a good friend like Charlie ( I was even one of the few who called him that). It felt good to have fulfilled my promise. So good that i got up from bed and started my morning. I went to the window and looked at the beautiful view. Morsensville, north of Doomsday Bay and west of Silicon Valley (like the vacation pamphlet said). Felt good to live somewhere like this. Oh yeah better wake Alex up. Went to her room but stopped at the door. Wait, last time she made me breakfast I should do it today. But maybe she wouldn't mind i mean its just 2 days. That's no big deal right?

Emma Archer
Oh no hes going to kill her. Not after so long. Please no, no please....
"Umm...Emma?"
"NOOOOOOOOO!!...................… more..........................Hi Herntz"
He looked like someone just gave him a heart attack.
"Sorry, i was just reading a VERY good book" i said
"No...no problem. I just came to tell you you are late for the meeting..... Wait how long have you been reading that?"
"Since you left."
He looked confused.
"That was almost 2 hours ago. And you've just been reading?"
"It's the Raylandsfair saga. I read it for 6 hours without stopping one time" i said coolly. He looked shocked. Then he immediately pretended he wasn't. Oh Lylain never change.
"Well im ready. Who else came?" I asked. Normally most people avoided meetings to work longer on their own projects.
"Well Marlone didn't come" Yes already good news.....for him. "Stevens came" no doubt there. "And Fender" Oh great Hedrick Fender the w… [view original content]
Mike.....Just Mike
Then i got a miracle.
".......i was just practicing a scene from a school play"
The whole thing changed. She sto… morepped crying. Her eyes were still watery but her expression had changed. He just looked confused.
"What kind of play?" she asked curiously
Then it all came together.
"Shakespeare" I said smiling on the inside. Then the whole thing dissolved. It went just a quick as it came. It felt weird but at least 'that' was over.
I then realised it was really early. I didn't have to go so soon. I even thought of calling Mr. Pierce to let the buss come early, but only a total jerk would do that. So i just...talked to them. And it was....nice i guess. After we were done i watched some tv for the next hours. Thinking on all that happened i was surprised things didn't end worse.
Riley Peters
Well i guess one call wouldn't bother him...

I thought about it and decided that sis deserved better. So i went down stairs and started cooking.
Valentino Drake
"D… moreeal, now leave me alone"
"As you wish. And i promise you you won't regret this" She said as she smiled and left. Man it felt wrong to trust her after everything but if there was even one chance to fix this it was worth it. Now what was i doing?............ Oh That's right, I aImost forgot. I just played the worst game i've ever seen. I need to do something to make me feel better. Especially after that game.

Today was the day. The day i was going to see my sister again. After all these years i would finally be with her. Sure i saw … moreher in some pictures she sent me but they were just pictures. I could hug her and hear her voice again. I heard that today she would finally show that project of hers the one she spent all these years working on. I could have seen her yesterday but i was chosen to carry out patrol in the outside of the building so i was hoping one of the others did. I was going to ask them today before the meeting (without telling them she was my sister of course). We would have the meeting and then we would be able to roam the building. Then i could see her. But first we had to deal with our 'special' guest. It made me sick to think we were going to keep him in this building. If that freak touched my sister i would make sure he would never hurt anyone ever again.
We all came early since we knew Commander Rickwell tol… [view original content]
Emma Archer
I walked to the meeting room. I had to stop 2 or 3 times to make sure that Lylain was still following me. Why was he so slow?… more Did he not realise how important it was that we got there on time? I finally saw him after what felt like hours. He was catching his breath.
"So are you coming or what?" I asked him seriously. He stared at me. His look said something like 'Are you serious?'. Then he looked a bit mad.
"You have been running like a panther chasing its prey....."
Really? It's amazing how much he doesn't get it.
"Well sorry for taking this seriously. I mean after all these weeks why would going to the meeting that could change our lives forever be that important?" He gave me the look again.
"Oh this is just about the meeting right?" My god did that really just hit him?
"YES, Yes it's about the meeting. What else would it be about?"
"I don't know maybe a certain doctor"

I ended up choosing to call Sadie and to spoil the ending for the game (since lets face it it probably wasn't good) thoug… moreh i wasn't sure which first. Curiosity got the better of me. I picked up my phone and searched online "Children of the Cataclysm 9 ending". And immediately i saw articles like 'Worst Game Ever' 'Carmines Catastrophe', 'A Failure of Cataclysmic Proportions" . I had to skip a few till i found the one i was looking for 'All four endings for COTC 9'. FOUR? Well they couldn't all be bad...could they?
I began to read the giant wall of text.
'If you are reading this it means you are one of the few lucky people on this planet who gave up on the game and realised what of piece of garbage it was and just want to be done with it. And before we start if you are one of the insane fanbase who claims this game was good GET OUT.

It took me a while.....but i decided i should....trust him......lying probably would have been easier.........
"Well......… more..ok i might bit a tiny bit in love with him...." I confessed nervously.
He looked at me with shock, i don't think he expected me to be that honest. We stared at each other for a while not knowing what to say. Then he suddenly opened his eyes widely.
"Emma are you......blushing?" he asked
Oh no was i? Was i THAT hopeless? I quickly took my phone and used it as a mirror. It was a dark reflection but i could clearly tell that.....i wasn't blushing............. I looked back at Herntz only to see him laughing. He kept at it till he ran out of air. His whole face was red by then.
"My god....... That look on your face. It was just so damn flustered. I just couldn't help it." Then he looked at me straight in the face. His expression changed and he suddenly looked a bit panicked....with good reason. … [view original content]
Nick Archer
I had punched him straight in the face. I only had a short time to react. I decided i could use my skill and explain without … morerevealing my true intentions.
"And that, Curtis, is what happens when you aren't focused on your surroundings" i said with a smile on my face. I got that one straight from Ellie's book.
The guys shocked looks quickly turned into smiles and after a while even Curtis joined in.
"Fine, you got me this time but just you wait. Next time you won't even see it coming." He said with a grin on his face. Wait how won't i see it coming when he basically just told me it could happen any time?
Howard looked at the others. "It seems Robin Hood wants to follow in El's footsteps"
Nicholson quickly replied. "Yeah, i bet hes trying to impress her"
Curtis immediately took his chance to get back at me. "Well after his last try i bet he'll take any chance he can get."

Zack Sheen
It took me a while but i finally realised i was crying. T-this was it, my life was over. Now mom and dad would kick me out of … moreschool just when i was getting a new friend. And bro would beat me up for being 'sloppy'. All in just one call. How the hell did it even happen so fast?......Sadie. Sadie Motherfucking Robbins. I always suspected about her talking to Mr. Pierce after class 'Discussing Homework'. She set this all up. She must have made up a bunch of bs and told it to Pierce. That slut, she fucking ruined me. All because i annoyed her a couple of times. She wouldn't get away with this. I had to fix it. I looked at my watch. I still had one hour left. It was more than enough to think of a plan to make things up with Pierce.
I grabbed my bag and the closet door opened. One of the hinges was loose since the repair, so it was hard to keep it closed without something blocking it. I looked at it by instinct but instead i only … [view original content]

"It's going to Beta" i answered. I was risking everything, but i just couldn't. I tried my best … moreto make it sound genuine.
Louie smiled "Thank's for that." then he began to walk off. "Beta it is" I tricked him, i thought in joy. I saved my friends.
Then suddenly Morton started laughing. Both of us looked at him in shock. it was the first time i saw him with any emotion on his face and by the way Louie reacted i guess it was a rare thing. "Are you serious?" he asked "I mean i knew you were stupid but this is just ridiculous"
"Wha...what do you mean?" Louie said weakly he was clearly lost.
Morton went back to his 'normal' face and looked at him in the eyes."This guy just took a beating for a guy he didn't even know, and before that he tried to save his life by attacking us knowing he was unarmed and outnumbered.

Well, i was standing 'round, waiting for Adam to call me. Poor fella always seemed paranoid about this trip. My guess was the … morestress caught him and he slept in. God thanks for that, he needed it. My phone rang. Adam Pierce, well speak of the devil....
"Hey Gus, get the buss ready now and pick me up. The nightmare started."
"Roger that" i answered. I turned it on and drove to his house. Silently praying to god that the kids wouldn't drive me insane.
Adam Pierce
Gus arrived and picked me up. I got in the buss and sat on my chair.
" Step on it." i ordered a bit harshly. He turned aroud and looked at me.
"What route?" he asked.
Damn, i almost forgot. There were two different routes to get the kids. Route 318 would start with Charles and end with Donnie. Route 317 would Start with Valentino and end with Samuel.

I walked by the halls of the building with confidence. Looking at the beautifully colored walls i would one day call mine. … moreTrying to ignore...... Oh what the hell was i thinking?!
This was insane. I have never been good with children. Those brats would get me thrown into an asylum. But what was i supposed to do? I can't show weakness in front of that harlotte. The way her pupils dilated when she looked at that viper Lucios..... I should have known. Wolves do travel in packs. They were both ready to destroy me and consume my carcass. Just like they'd done so many other times. Only now they would make sure i wouldn't come back from the dead this time.
Why did i not see this happening sooner? It was a match made in hell. Both pretenders,manipulators, monsters............both with a bloodthirsty hatred for me.

I was still waiting for the buss. I looked at my phone. 5 more minutes till it was late. I began to worry he had taken the… more other street. If Mr.Pierce seriously took route 317 after i lied to one of my best friends to cover for him there would be hell to pay. Luckily i was wrong. I saw with excitement as the buss finally arrived. It was just one of those regular buses with the yellow pain and the black lines. But to me it was my ticket to the experience of a lifetime. The joy must have been clear on my face since after opening the door Pierce immediately commented on it.
"You know i was going to ask if you were happy now, but i don't really see the point in it anymore" He said with a small resentment in his voice.
Was it really that big a deal i wanted the trip early? I did my best to have a good relationship with him and always tried to make him feel appreciated as a teacher. But know he wants to be pissed at me becaus… [view original content]
[Follow Saddie's Advice]
Shockingly, I'm not the kind of person to give second chances, at least not unless there is a really good reason… more to do so. Zach is a jerk and he better does something to redeem himself first before I even consider giving him a chance. Besides, I like Sadie a lot more than Zach (which, to be fair, is not very hard) and I don't want to piss her off by hanging out with that asshole.
As for Riley, I have expected her to find a dead body. I guess this guy is the hobo who Sam saved earlier and I guess he was killed by these wannabe terrorists. I am just curious why they felt the need to write a message to Sam on the wall, but well, I guess that's how the mind of these crazy people works.
Zoey Smith
I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock. I tried ignoring the sound but it was just impossible. Dammit, i should have set it … moreto 'winter morning' instead i set it to 'marching band trumpet'. God i hated that setting. I tossed and turned in my Egyptian cotton bed sheets trying not to wake up but sadly it was only matter of time. I whined as i opened my eyes and got up from bed. Then i slowly put on my slippers and walked the marble steps to the other side of my floor were the bathroom was. I had the massage setting turned off for the first time in months so it felt weird to touch the hard floor. It made me wish we had the carpet from that penthouse in Rio in this mansion too. As i went to the bathroom looked at my reflection in the mirror. Then i was suddenly glad i forgot to take my morning picture.

Just looking at her today made me wish i could take her on the trip, but it said so right in the pamphlet. No pets allowed. I rubbed the back of her ear as Alex came into the kitchen.
She yawned "Sorry i'm late sis. I just.......is that pancakes? Wow i wasn't expecting this. I thought i would have to cook for you today"
I smiled "Consider it a thank you gift"
"Then i accept it. I love it when you make them." she said as she grabbed a plate.
I stopped petting Summer and started to finish my own batch of pancakes.

It was 8:00 when i woke up by the sound of the alarm clock. Originally it was supposed to be set to 6:00 but let's just say … moresomeone came into my room in the middle of the night and changed the settings because they wanted me to get a goodnight's rest. Sadly today was a day i REALLY did not want to wake up on. So when the clock started beeping i started blocking. But my brave efforts were for not since i suddenly faced an unstoppable threat.

Thank you for the compliment, that is much appreciated I like making detailed characters, though to be honest, my character creation skills have advanced a lot in the past year and I can proudly say that my more recently submitted characters are even more detailed.

Comments
[I was practing a scene from a school play]
this would've been my pick too, feels fitting here
Helena reminds me a bit of Kiki, just a tiny bit, but still
Have you read any of my previous replies to your comments?
Morsensville
is this the name of where the school is?
It's the town. I got tired of having the location nameless and stateless. Now it's just nameless.
I think you found your style at this Emma scene
lol Pierce
also being immune to fear doesn't mean doesn't feel it, and even if yes, a person can still rationally know when a rescue is needed
lol Pierce x2 !!!
The game is supposed to be filled with bad logic and glitches.
I so want my girl elf sneak up on Ellie in the future
damn, seems it would've been more interesting to make students at the early stage, I like how the story takes place at same time from all perspectives
Helena Macnion ... hmmm
Thanks. It really took time to memorize a time period considering how long it was between Parts.
Emma is the highlight, Marlone reminds me a bit of a certain Stargate Atlantis scientist
oh God, Marlone as tour guide with Lucius present XD
I think Max may have 'fun' with Samuel's tormenters, either that or hire them
hm, too much of a Joker
Do you mean that as good or bad?
Regardless, that was exactly what i was going for so thanks
.
I noticed you wrote 'buss' since the start of story, why not bus?
Egads, Marlone will BURN if arguing with Lucius XD
...........That is one grammar mistake i didn't know i was making till 3 months ago. I'm sorry, English is my second language and i was 15 when i started this. I triple check everything now.
Indeed. Incredible how the circumstances lead to this.
what should I say? then again I know it would be WAY late to try vote now
lol. I'm just going to wait for the guy who comes after you to react to this.
one day, Riley may remember this as one of her happier memories, depending on the journey to follow
second chances?
Zack didn't do anything to this guy tho, as such no reason for him not to attempt offering at least one chance
I might make a character with mismatched eyes which can shoot lasers, just to ask Zoey if she can too XD
Indeed. This was merely a preview of the horror that will come.
XD.
Wonder how a brawl with Zoey, Kiki, and Max would look, altho I guess Max wouldn't want to fight the girls
so many gangs, so many streets for Max to conquer
no wonder the story only has 12 pages
She must really love him
no way that Riley, Samuel, Zack's etc problems won't be noticed by Lucius, at least the most obvious issues like signs of combat
Woah, the bus is like a gathering place for a dozen or so criminal scenes
Your guys really won't help that.
